I don't think I ever found out who the makers were Si. Is that the guys then 'superquick'? I'll get in touch with them if it is. I can't remember who sent me these pictures, but they appear to be a 'rough version' inferior model of the Albion. Some of the detail is correct, but no way a perfect match. I think the one you had was pretty detailed from what I've heard it was like. Plenty of people have told me they had one.This is the best I've seen so far.http://www.flickr.com/photos/phill_dvsn/439613781/

Yeah, Superquick. Their model was far superior - a much more accurate rendition. It even had an interior, but this looked like guesswork, unlike the exterior, which was spot-on.

Hi Phill,we lived in Leeds from the early 1970s until 1993 and were heavily involved with the campaign to prevent the Packhorse and Eldon being demolished for road widening.

As I recall, our friend John Quail was the front line orator and also the instigator of the plan to plant a memorial plaque for the 'old' Roscoe when the b#88*rs demolished it in 1983.

At the time, I was working on the repair of an old wrought iron bridge on the Aire and Calder navigation, near where we now live. A large chunk of Yorkshire stone, originally part of one of the padstones for the bridge, became 'available' to act as the base for the brass plaque.

When my wife spotted this topic on the 'Secret Leeds' forum, she dug out some of the pictures taken on the day that the memorial plaque was planted, including this one...
